Yeovil Town have officially signed 20-year-old centre-back Jack Kingdon from Cardiff City, inking him to a one-year deal with an option to extend for another year. The promising defender arrives at Huish Park after steadily climbing the ranks in professional football, with Yeovil winning the competition to secure his services.
Kingdon impressed during a loan spell at Rochdale in the 2024/25 season, where he made 16 appearances and played a key role as the team reached the National League play-offs. Before joining Cardiff, Kingdon honed his skills within Manchester United’s esteemed youth academy, captaining the Under-18 squad to a trophy-winning campaign.
Known for being comfortable on the ball and confident in possession, Kingdon embodies the qualities of a modern centre-back. Yeovil Town highlighted his leadership abilities, strong game reading, and readiness to adapt to senior-level football at a young age. His addition strengthens Yeovil’s defensive options and brings valuable long-term potential to manager Billy Rowley’s squad as they prepare for the upcoming season.
